艾滋病毒的感知风险更高与密西西比州与男性发生性关系 (MSM) 的黑人男性中PrEP吸收率较低有关. 这一发现凸显了这种人群中感知风险和PrEP采用之间的复杂关系.
科学领域:
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
- 流行病学 流行病学
- 社会和行为科学 社会和行为科学
背景情况:
- 在美国,与男性发生性关系的黑人男性 (MSM) 中,艾滋病毒的患病率不成比例.
- 认为艾滋病毒感染风险低可能会增加脆弱性,特别是在美国南部艾滋病毒发病率最高的地区.
- 很少有研究检查了在美国南部黑人MSM中感知到的HIV风险和PrEP采用之间的关系.
研究的目的:
- 检查在密西西比州黑人MSM中感知艾滋病毒风险和PrEP采用之间的关联.
- 了解影响PrEP在高患病率地区吸收的因素.
主要方法:
- 来自"加速"的数据! 黑人MSM的干预子样本.
- 评估了PrEP摄入量 (二进制) 和感知到的艾滋病毒风险 (低与高).
- 精确的后勤回归调整为年龄,社会环境因素和性行为.
主要成果:
- 84名HIV阴性黑人MSM (平均年龄30岁) 参加;86.9%的人报告使用PrEP.
- 70%的人报告认为艾滋病毒风险低;28.6%的人报告认为风险高.
- 在调整后,感知到的更高的艾滋病毒风险与PrEP摄入率的降低有关 (OR = 0.20,p = 0.040).
结论:
- 在密西西比州的黑人MSM中,艾滋病毒风险感知和PrEP采用之间的关系是复杂的.
- 矛盾的是,更高的感知风险与较低的PrEP摄入量有关,这表明社会和结构因素的关键作用.
- 需要进一步的纵向研究来阐明感知风险和prep使用之间的相互作用.
